Turkey's largest military industrial park to be built in ten years

Turkey plans to complete the construction of the largest military research center in the east of Istanbul in the next eight to ten years, Defense News reports.

Teknopark Istanbul will become a kind of analogue of America's Silicon Valley in the defense industry, Lenta.ru reports.

The park will occupy 950 thousand square meters on the territory of the International Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen Airport and may be the largest center of its kind in Europe.

It was previously reported that Teknopark Istanbul will mainly specialize in military and civil aviation, as well as space, land and marine systems, electronics and information technology.
